Daylight savings time ends this weekend (Sunday at 2 a.m.), which means it’s time to turn the clock back and brace ourselves for a long, probably very frigid winter. But don’t despair! Daylight savings also means we get back the extra hour we lost during spring forward. Instead of using the extra time to catch up on sleep, why not use it to enrich your life? If you’re not sure what to do with the bonus hour, we’ve got a few suggestions…

Write Scandal Fan Fiction

If Olivia Pope and President Fitzgerald Grant can’t be together on TV, at least they can be together in your self-penned script that you should totally send to Shonda Rimes before they start filming the next season.

Knit a Boyfriend Doll

Cold nights are coming, and if the whole “cuffing season” thing doesn’t work out for you, you’ll need a backup. A boyfriend doll made out of yarn is the perfect way to creepily sleep away the cold, lonely nights of winter.

Perfect Your Beyonce Dance Moves

Now is as good a time as any to perfect your “Flawless” routine. Imagine how cool you’ll look on the dance floor by New Year’s Eve with a little practice! And do NOT forget the importance of the “woke up like this” spirit fingers. Take some cues from Blue Ivy Carter.

Take At Least 352 Selfies

Kim Kardashian busies herself by taking selfies and then being all, “Oh, don’t worry this isn’t about vanity, this is for a book for my husband, NBD.” If Kim can use that excuse to justify the fact that she can’t stop taking pictures of herself, then it’s OK to indulge in a little vanity yourself.

Troll Tinder and OKCupid for @ByeFelipe Fodder

There are few things in life more pleasurable than trolling other trolls. @ByeFelipe is an Instagram account that documents the worst private message exchanges from online dating apps and websites. From what we’ve gleaned, it’s pretty easy to piss guys off, so let it rip. If you can’t beat ’em, troll ’em.

Dub a Scene from Law & Order: SVU with John Oliver’s Supreme Court Dogs

Nothing is funnier than watching animals do people things. NOTHING. Thank goodness for John Oliver and his crew, who a few weeks ago suggested that CSPAN, which broadcasts Supreme Court cases with traditional courtroom sketches, replace the boring drawings with video of dogs dressed up as justices. They even encouraged people to remix footage of bespectacled dogs adjusting their glasses and pounding on podiums for their own use. Now that you’ve got a free hour, it would be cool to see what A.D.A. Alexandra Cabbot looks like as a dog trying to put a bad guy behind bars. Check out the footage and get remixing, NOW.
